Laundry Bin Fashion http://www.thefashioncult.com/2009/03/over-it-laundry-bin-fashion/ http://www.thefashioncult.com/2009/03/over-it-laundry-bin-fashion/#comments Sat, 07 Mar 2009 08:05:22 +0000 /?p=1563 laundry-bin-fashion

Yes, yes, we know fashion is more than body covering – it is, potentially, art. But some fashion-as-art trends are just insufferable to me. I’m seeing far too much of this crumpled mess, which I’m calling “laundry bin” fashion. Designers, leave this crap off the runways and head to your nearest community college where you can to all the abstract sculpture you heart desires. Bosh!

The above photos are examples from Yohji Yamamoto, A.F. Vandevorst, and Vivienne Westwood, respectively – seen at Paris fashion week. And these aren’t the worst!
